Industry reviews
This is a game that is clean and simple to explain, and the mechanisms not only work well but are tightly aligned with the game’s theme, making learning the game that much smoother. It offers a smattering of bluffing for people who don’t like “lying” games like The Resistance, and it plays fast enough that it’s easily played twice in a lunch hour once people know the game.

-from Geeks Under Grace
It’s a great way for young kids to learn simple strategy and get them thinking a bit further than just picking the matching color card from their deck. Older players will look over the simplicity of game play and completely focus on what the others players are going to do. For them it becomes a game of trying to outsmart each other.
-from The Board Game Family
I love the events because it makes the game a little more tense. (..) The production really is gorgeous, I really appreciate that they put a lot of effort into the artwork for this game.
